Looking for my grandads grave but not sure where ill find him , they lived at the time in Vicarage Road Watford so im assuming that he'd be buried at the graveyard near this address , would anyone know of the named church for this graveyard ?

Hi Chelle

At a guess I would say that St Marys Parish Church is the nearest to Vicarage Road. It's certainly in the centre of Watford.

Take a look at Chris Reynolds pages

This will give you an idea of the churches in the Watford area.

Hope it helps.

The graveyard in Vicarage Road is a very large cemetery cared for by Watford council. I went there last year and could easily spend a week looking at all the graves. I believe it is set over 14 acres! I don't think it would have one named church. If you look up Watford Council website it gives you details of the cemetery and there is a number for the manager of this and North Watford cemetery. It might be an idea to give them a ring and see if they have a list of graves which would save alot of time.

All the best.
